The 1958–59 season was Real Madrid Club de Fútbol's 56th season in existence and the club's 28th consecutive season in the top flight of Spanish football.
Summary[]
During the summer Hungarian player Ferenc Puskás arrived to the club[1] after a 2-year FIFA ban on the him.[2] The move was controversial due to player's age (31 years old) and his being overweight, reasons why he had already been turned down by Juventus, Milan[3] and Manchester United.
However, Puskas and Di Stefano completed a lethal duo with an astonishing campaign collecting for the club the fourth consecutive European Cup defeating Just Fontaine's Stade de Reims. However, Puskas missed the final match due to a technical decision by head coach Luis Carniglia, who was fired after that by club chairman Santiago Bernabéu.[4] Also, Di Stefano clinched another top scorer individual trophy in the Spanish league with 23 goals. Puskas was in second place with 21 goals.
The squad finished in a decent second spot in the league table, four points behind champions FC Barcelona, despite scoring a record 89 goals (to Barcelona's 96). In June, the club reached the semi-finals of Copa del Generalísimo, where they were defeated by FC Barcelona.[5]
